Fish and Seafood – guide to cooking times

The following are some handy hints on steaming fish and seafood:

1.Place fish in the steaming tray.

2.If fish or seafood is to be poached or cooked in a sauce, use the rice bowl.

3.Add lemon wedges, herbs and seasoning before steaming, as desired.

4.Add butter or margarine after steaming, if desired.

5.Fish is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in colour.

6.Frozen fish may be steamed without defrosting, except for fillets which need to be defrosted and separated before steaming. Fillets are best steamed in a single layer.

7.When steaming frozen fish, extend the steaming time.

8.When steaming shellfish, discard any that do not open after cooking.
